Hi Doug,

Working with Agent is easy. For example (I suppose you have MS Agent OleControl on your form):

thisform.oleAgent1.Characters.Load("MERLIN", "c:\windows\msagent\chars\merlin.acs"
WITH thisform.oleAgent1.Characters("MERLIN")
.MoveTo(100,50)
.SHOW()
.Play("Greet")
.Speak("Hi! I am Merlin")
ENDWITH

There is a lot of documentation at Microsoft site:
